The Packers are 0-5 on the road this season. Only 3 out of 551 playoff teams in the Super Bowl Era didn't have a road win within their first 10 games of the season, according to ESPN Stats & Information. They were: the 2015 Redskins, 1996 Jaguars and 1995 Lions.

Packers coach Mike McCarthy was asked Friday if he's concerned about his future a day after his team dropped to 4-5-1 for the season, including 0-5 on the road.

Mike McCarthy, for one of the first times in his 13-year tenure, is asked about his job security. "I'm focused on what's in front of us," McCarthy said. "We have a 2018 commitment and that's all I've ever focused on.
"That's the job. That's the way this business has gone. That's part of the job responsibility. We set standard here the past 12 years and it's our responsibility to play to that standard."

Kyler Fackrell posted his second three-sack game of the season, making him the first Packers player with multiple three-sack games in the same season since Clay Matthews in 2010. Fackrell, who had only five sacks in his first two seasons, now has eight sacks through 10 games this season. Here's the playing-time breakdown on defense from Thursday's 27-24 loss at Seattle.
